Mandiant is a recognized leader in dynamic cyber defense, threat intelligence and incident response services. By scaling decades of frontline experience, Mandiant helps organizations to be confident in their readiness to defend against and respond to cyber threats. Mandiant is part of Google Cloud.

For modern security teams, the gap between detecting a suspicious indicator and fully understanding the threat is often measured in days—time that defenders simply don’t have. Manually correlating data, mapping TTPs, and authoring detection rules creates critical bottlenecks that slow down response and burn out analysts.

Join Tim Gallo, Lead Global Solutions Architect, as he demonstrates how to shatter these bottlenecks using the new Agentic capabilities within Google Threat Intelligence. Tim will showcase a powerful workflow that transforms a single indicator of compromise (IOC) into a comprehensive threat hunting methodology, compressing what used to take days of research into just seven minutes.

In this session, you will learn how to:
- Instantly Pivot: Automatically correlate a raw IOC with specific malware families, threat actors, and historical campaign data.
- Automate Framework Mapping: Extract tactical behaviors and map them directly to the MITRE ATT&CK framework without manual analysis.
- Generate Immediate Detections: Watch the system build production-ready YARA, YARA-L, and Sigma rules tailored to the specific threat.
- Operationalize Defense: Create complete threat hunting playbooks on the fly to proactively defend your environment.

Don't miss this opportunity to see the future of high-velocity threat analysis in action. Register now to see how Agentic workflows can multiply your team's efficiency and speed.

From IOC to Action in Minutes: Unlocking Agentic Capabilities in Google Threat Intel

Modern threats utilize highly complex and obfuscated delivery chains to conceal their final payloads and evade detection. This tactical webinar, presented by Google Cloud VirusTotal Security Engineer and FLARE's reverse engineering expert, will demystify the process of analyzing these sophisticated multi-stage threats and show how to scale your static analysis pipeline.

We will demonstrate an in-depth analysis of a multi-stage .NET dropper that leads to the final AgentTesla payload. You will learn expert-level techniques to unravel these chains efficiently:

*Time-Travel Debugging (TTD) Mastery: See how to leverage TTD to navigate complex execution flows, trace obfuscation routines, and perform efficient analysis to quickly extract the primary payload.

*Rapid Static Triage: See the combined power of capa and FLOSS for swift malware capability identification and automated configuration extraction. Learn how to deobfuscate critical strings and access key indicators without ever running the final AgentTesla payload.

*Google Threat Intelligence Integration for Context & Validation: Discover how the high-fidelity indicators and extracted configuration data, once gathered, are instantly cross-referenced with Google Threat Intelligence's massive dataset. This pivoting capability allows analysts to gain immediate threat context, identify related samples, confirm findings, and showcase the effectiveness of crowd-sourced detection efforts.

We will move from initial traditional analysis to building a sense of the threat's complexity, utilizing TTD for payload extraction, analyzing the final configuration data, and pivoting to Google Threat Intelligence to see how detection is achieved through these multiple layers of obfuscation.

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn practical, scalable strategies for transforming complex reverse engineering tasks into automated, repeatable wins for your threat intelligence program.
